AmigaOS 4: Status-Update of Hyperion
In a blog of Hyperion Entertainment, Hans-Jörg Frieden has released a status update on the latest developments of AmigaOS 4.2:
  • Exec SG : kernel development has been forked off into an experimental and stable branch, to facilitate field testing of potentially drastically new features such as the scheduler, separate address spaces, 64 bit address space awareness etc.
  • The task scheduler was completely rewritten in C and now implements the long planned "pluggable" scheduler functionality : the scheduling algorithm can be changed on the fly, during runtime depending on factors like task's preference and CPU load, different CPU cores using different scheduling algorithms. The re-write of the scheduler also allows for load balancing which is required for proper multicore support.
  • Work is in progress on yet another Power ISA implementation.
  • Gallium : bumped to Mesa 9.1, i.e. OpenGL 3.1. Software renderer already implemented, work on hardware accelerated drivers within the framework of Gallium will benefit substantially by the experience gained developing Warp3D drivers for the AMD Radeon Evergreen range (Radeon HD 5xxx/6xxx).

AmigaOS 4: OSDLauncher 0.3.0 (beta)
"OSDLauncher" is a management tool for On Screen Displays. Instead of directly controlling multimedia functions like "louder", "quieter" or "pause" with global hotkeys, at first OSDLauncher is started.

With the help of graphics the tool then shows the current status (volume, start/stop etc.) and then transmits the command via ARexx to the multimedia application (screenshot, Youtube video).

OSDLauncher requires AllKey, Mixer, Eject.Os4 and MUI_Calc. The author explained in the readme the installation and points out the beta status of the current version.

Direct download: OSDLauncher.lha (11,3 MB) (cg) (Translation: dr)
